This error occurs because Word or Microsoft Outlook places formatting on text that is incompatible with HTML formatting.

To correct this error, paste the text into Notepad first to remove the formatting, then paste into the web form description.

If you are a Mac user, paste in plain text by pressing Shift+Command+V
